You have to manually go into your phone's settings to turn it off. I was once jolted awake at 4am by an Amber Alert warning me to be on the lookout for a license plate number in a city 400 miles away. Never again.

Taiwan coping intensifies, Philippines and Vietnam urged to join NATO

Well yeah, it just sounds like you've already made up excuses not to put yourself out there. That's the rewiring your brain needs through classical conditioning of changing your habits from sitting in front of a screen all day.

The point is getting out there. It's not that you'll suddenly be awash in new friends and acquaintances, it's that you'll rewire your brain to see the world and people around you with a more open, inviting mind.

Because you spend all your time online, which gives you an illusory blanket of comfort and connection. You have to get out there and rewire your brain. The people will follow.

I assume this is a bluff to jockey for more power. He'll give in after negotiations.

lol this comment won't age well. RemindMe! 3 months

Taiwan just pivoted away from Covid Zero after seeing the futility. It's only a matter of time for China to do so also, not that face-saving obstinance isn't getting in the way...

Absolutely contributed. But there was never any "stopping" this virus once it escaped Wuhan.

It wouldn't surprise me if this whole fiasco was a bluff to wax his own ego and give him more clout.

Is anyone actually defending China's practices? I know Covid Zero is a noble goal, but this virus will be with us in perpetuity. So they shut down large cities for weeks on end, it only takes the next round of infections to shut it back down all over again.

I noticed you left off 190 other countries that didn't contain Covid.

Just like Roe v Wade is a mirage...

I mean, there's something to be said about our LGBTQ comrades not being sent to conversion camps so soon, yeah?

Whoa, graphs go up and down based on projections and earnings? My sixth-grade self is blown away!

Embarrassing number of uncritical comments in here...

Drone in Shanghai China telling residents "Control your soul’s desire for freedom. Do not open the window or sing." - also on reddit, can anyone fluent in Mandarin confirm?

Potato, potatoe. All that matters is she's targeting the deep state.

Based MTG. No CIA puppet deserves applause.

The only time I ever see anything about this schmuck is because you turds constantly keep bringing him up.

Dunno, but hopefully they get paid in crypto.
